✨ THE HELPER SPIRIT (BONE GUARDIAN)

Beyond combat, a Master Necromancer can utilize the Helper Spirit. This versatile entity adapts its behavior based on the tool it holds in its main hand. By giving it specific items, you can automate your domain.

🛠️ Automation Roles by Item

To assign a task, simply give the Helper Spirit the corresponding item:

• ⛏️ The Miner (Pickaxe):

  • Behavior: Automatically excavates a 5x5 area around its spawn point.

  • Intelligence: Scans for ores (Coal, Iron, Diamond, etc.) in the walls while tunneling.

  • Safety: It will automatically place blocks to plug nearby lava or water leaks to prevent flooding.

• 🪓 The Lumberjack (Axe):

  • Behavior: Searches for the nearest logs within a 15-block radius and chops them down.

• 🧑‍🌾 The Harvester (Hoe):

  • Behavior: Scans for fully grown crops (Wheat, Carrots, Potatoes, Beetroot) and harvests them instantly.

• 🌱 The Planter (Seeds/Saplings):

  • Behavior: If it holds seeds, it searches for empty Farmland to plant. If it holds Saplings, it searches for valid ground to start a forest.

  • Smart Retrieval: If it runs out of seeds, it will attempt to find a nearby "Home Chest" to restock.

• 🐄 The Breeder (Wheat):

  • Behavior: Finds two animals of the same species and uses the wheat to put them in "love mode" to grow your farm.

• 📦 The Collector (Chest):

  • Behavior: Automatically roams the area to pick up items dropped on the ground and stores them in its designated "Home Chest."

• 🔥 The Ghost Smith (Furnace):

  • Behavior: If placed between two containers, it will take raw materials from the "Source," "smelt" them spiritually in its inventory, and deposit the finished product into the "Destination."

• 🚜 The Transporter (Hopper):

  • Behavior: Acts as a mobile pipe, moving large quantities of items between two specific chest locations.

⚓ Essential Mechanics

• Spawn Anchor: The Spirit treats the location where it was summoned as its "Spawn Position." Most tasks (like mining and farming) are performed within a 15-30 block radius of this point.

• Inventory Management: If the Spirit's inventory becomes full, it will prioritize traveling to its linked chest to deposit its gathered resources before returning to work.

• Recall: If the Spirit wanders too far or gets stuck, it will automatically teleport back to its Spawn Anchor.
